Instances

For each matched instance a variable with the identifier is created containing an Instance Wrapper object. This object has a list of methods available to access information and meta information about the matches instance.

[information_key]

For each information key a method is created to load that information value. For example if you have a Person with the information first_name and last_name then you can access them directly as properties with {{p.first_name}} and {{p.last_name}}.

translate(information_key)

Accessing information directly returns the value you would also get if you would access it with rula. For an enum value this means you would get e.g. de instead of Germany and for a unit value this means you get 55 instead of 55 kg. Using translate, you will get the value in the requested language of the document. You probably want to use translate(...) almost by default.

information_title(information_key)

Returns the translated title of the information_key. E.g First Name for information_title('first_name').

proof_file(proof_key)

Returns the path to the uploaded proof file to display proofs on ADX documents. This most likely is combined with an <image> tag, for example like this:

<image
  path="{{c.proof_file('credit_key_account_plan')}}"
  width="16cm"
  height="16cm"
/>

field_id(information_key)

Return the field_id for an information_key. This contains both the instance_id and the information_key. This is meant to be used with editable fields to provide a way to identify the field, for example like this:

<field 
  id="{{p.field_id('first_name')}}" 
  title="{{p.information_title('first_name')}}"
>
  {{p.first_name}}
</field>
